520 |a The present study sought to explore the relationship between vending childhood and adolescent religious self-beliefs and religious coping among vending children in Harare, Zimbabwe. The research objectives were to investigate the nature of religious self-beliefs and religious coping among vending children in Harare. A psychoethnographic research design was employed in this study. This involved collection of data for a sustained period in the context within which the participants live. A total of 20 participants took part in this study. Key informant interviews, focus group discussions, in-depth interviews, participant and non-participant observations were the data collection methods. Thematic content analysis was used for analysing the data. Data analysis revealed largely negative religious self-beliefs. Most vending adolescent children believed that they were controlled and influenced by evil spirits. The vending children believed that faith healing and spiritual cleansing by prophets and Pentecostal pastors could solve their spiritual, judicial and economic problems. Religion seemed to be able to provide meaning to lives and as a viable coping mechanism among the vending children.
